it's enough, but i wouldn't pay the extra for an 8086k,32gb of ram is overkill and the M12ii is old and missing protections.

Yeah I wouldn't pay extra for just the higher clocked 8086k, the i7 8700k is just the same thing and cheaper.

What's your monitor resoltion/refresh rate?

You can get like 80-90% of the performance for like $700 less

[Gavins23]

Going for 144 but I’ll settle for 60hz

[Gavins23]

You also mentioned a 700$ pc for about the same performance

$700 less, around $1300 before taxes anyways. I don't know where you OG budget went in the build.

144hz could mean 1080p or 1440p either way a 1070ti is good at either, just more on medium-high instead of ultra settings for AAA games for 1440p 144fps

 

CPU is fine as well, an 8700K would be faster of course, but I wouldn't say it's worth it over the R5 2600

X470 also gets you StoreMI, which is neat, so your 2TB drive is effectively as fast as an SSD after a few loads
